It’s one of those complex issues that requires someone to pull the wagon so everyone can jump on it. And that as such, the specifications of both HDMI 2.1 from DisplayPort 2.0 are finished, but then what happens to stop everything like this?
Neither GPUs, panels, nor manufacturers are for the job
Normally, any gamer expects a noticeable change in performance with every platform or GPU leap, leading the rest of the industry to launch new products like monitors, which in turn need to be faster in the process. Hz.
But the reality is that the steps have been very small here, where we can now see monitors 1080p with 360Hz or 4K with 144Hz for example. The question is so simple that it answers itself by looking at these two examples: DSC.
This is the main culprit and the main solution facing the industry as such. Screen compression is delaying the industry in pursuing a very clear goal: not to be the first to spend millions promoting a port and interface that until now has been expensive and unsupported.
The grim reality goes even further, because for example the new 3000 series RTX Amp only includes HDMI 2.1 and not DisplayPort 2.0 precisely due to commercial agreements with TV makers such as LG, where G-SYNC Compatible is being promoted and where To make matters worse, the new TVs of 2020 are capped at 41 GB / s
AMD and NVIDIA will once again have to remove the wagon from monitors with DisplayPort 2.0
Since there is no GPU capable of moving on its own and with sufficient quality to be considered a high setting at 4K @ 144Hz or 1080p @ 360Hz, manufacturers stick to DSC even at the price of the loss of color that this causes. He hopes that GPUs will take the plunge, integrate native DisplayPort 2.0 and launch with it a new range of monitors that will begin to announce these developments and where at the same time the industry is pushing down the price of interface integration.
So it’s the fish that bites its tail, where when you stop biting it and move forward, the others will chase it. In addition, you have to ditch the next-gen consoles, which will not integrate DisplayPort 2.0, but HDMI 2.1, so everything will come from the hand of AMD and NVIDIA in the next generation, at least that’s what we do. waits …
Therefore and in summary, we will have to live with HDMI 2.1 for now, waiting in a few years for the new generations of GPUs, which will take the monitor industry to DisplayPort 2.0 and with it to another series of improvements. it will set the industry on fire.
